Contrasting Modes of New World Arenavirus Neutralization by Immunization-Elicited Monoclonal Antibodies

open access: yesmBio, 2022
Transmission of the New World hemorrhagic fever arenaviruses Junín virus (JUNV) and Machupo virus (MACV) to humans is facilitated, in part, by the interaction between the arenavirus GP1 glycoprotein and the human transferrin receptor 1 (hTfR1).

In-cell DNP NMR reveals multiple targeting effect of antimicrobial peptide

open access: yesJournal of Structural Biology: X, 2022
Dynamic nuclear polarization NMR spectroscopy was used to investigate the effect of the antimicrobial peptide (AMP) maculatin 1.1 on E. coli cells. The enhanced 15N NMR signals from nucleic acids, proteins and lipids identified a number of unanticipated ...

Functional Independence of the Two Cysteine-rich Activation Domains in the Yeast Mac1 Transcription Factor [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2000
Mac1 is a transcriptional activator whose activity is inhibited by copper ions. Mutagenesis studies were carried out to map residues important in the copper inhibition of Mac1 activity. Seven new missense mutations were identified that resulted in copper-independent Mac1 transcriptional activation.

Transcriptome Analysis Uncovers a Link Between Copper Metabolism, and Both Fungal Fitness and Antifungal Sensitivity in the Opportunistic Yeast Candida albicans

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Copper homeostasis is an important determinant for virulence of many human pathogenic fungi such as the highly prevalent yeast Candida albicans. However, beyond the copper transporter Ctr1, little is known regarding other genes and biological processes ...

Virulence attributes and hyphal growth of C. neoformans are quantitative traits and the MATalpha allele enhances filamentation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2006
Cryptococcus neoformans is a fungal human pathogen with a bipolar mating system. It undergoes a dimorphic transition from a unicellular yeast to hyphal filamentous growth during mating and monokaryotic fruiting. The traditional sexual cycle that leads to

Engineering Ustilago maydis for production of tailor-made mannosylerythritol lipids

open access: yesMetabolic Engineering Communications, 2021
Mannosylerythritol lipids (MELs) are surface active glycolipids secreted by various fungi. MELs can be used as biosurfactants and are a biodegradable resource for the production of detergents or pharmaceuticals.

Nitric oxide increases biofilm formation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by activating the transcriptional factor Mac1p and thereby regulating the transmembrane protein Ctr1

open access: yesBiotechnology for Biofuels, 2019
Background Biofilms with immobilized cells encased in extracellular polymeric substance are beneficial for industrial fermentation. Their formation is regulated by various factors, including nitric oxide (NO), which is recognized as a quorum-sensing and ...

Kidney Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells Contribute to Myeloid Development and Pathology in Lupus Nephritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective The hematopoietic system maintains homeostasis by balancing myeloid and lymphoid cell production in the bone marrow (BM). In response to increased hematopoietic demand, extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) may occur in nonlymphoid organs. We investigated the role of EMH and kidney‐resident hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in ...

Growth dynamics and cyclin expression in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma cell lines

open access: yesDermatology Reports, 2010
We have investigated cell growth dynamics and cyclins B1 and E expression in cell lines derived from mycosis fungoides (MyLa), Sézary syndrome (SeAx), and CD30+ lympho-proliferative diseases (Mac1, Mac2a, JK).
